Good evening everyone, my dear friends who always share interesting stories about their travels here.

Hi friends, wherever you are, as usual, I'm sharing my journey with you.
Yesterday, I went with my family to visit my sick father in Banda Aceh. I left at 7:00 a.m. and arrived at my father's house around 12:00 p.m. After my grandmother spoke with my father and mother, I stayed at my father's house for about an hour. Then, my family took us to the Grand Mosque of Baiturrahman in Banda Aceh.
As we all know, if you're in Banda Aceh, if you haven't stopped by the Grand Mosque of Baiturrahman, you haven't really been there. So, my family thought it would be a great idea to stop by and enjoy the afternoon at the Grand Mosque in Banda Aceh.


After that, I went straight to the parking lot to call some of my cousins and enjoy the atmosphere inside the mosque after taking photos from a distance of the Baiturrahman Mosque building.
The atmosphere yesterday was quite beautiful, providing a stunning view for us to enjoy. Although it was raining quite heavily at my father's house, it didn't rain at all at the Baiturrahman Grand Mosque.




Then I entered the front yard of the mosque. There, we saw unpaved grass and many beautiful monuments with very cool architecture. I was entertained just by looking at it; of course, I didn't want to waste the happy moment with my family yesterday.




It's no wonder this mosque is famous for its beauty and location in the center of Banda Aceh. This mosque is a popular destination for visitors, as it is considered one of the grandest mosques in Aceh. This mosque also has a long history and will likely always be remembered by all Acehnese.
After entering the front area about 100 meters, we will encounter another gate painted white and also very attractive in appearance. From this gate, we can see a garden with a fountain-like pond in the center, right in front of the Baiturrahman Mosque building. This garden is also very special with its colorful lights that light up at night, but I can't show you how it looks because I visited the Baiturrahman Mosque during the day, so the lights weren't very bright yet.




Well, friends, when we're at the Baiturrahman Mosque, we never get bored of its beauty, and you certainly won't want to leave if you just take a moment to enjoy it. After I was satisfied capturing the beauty from the front, I immediately went to meet my family in the parking lot. It was already 6:00 p.m., and our return trip was quite long, taking about six hours. I also took some photos with my family outside the mosque while waiting for a few more people who were still inside to enjoy its beauty.



Even though we didn't stay overnight in Banda Aceh, we were able to see and witness the magnificent mosque. It was very comforting and gave me and my family a sense of extraordinary peace.
